 Our
Special Procedures Unit meets our community's needs in the expanding
field of Endoscopy. Board certified specialists
work with a multidisciplinary staff to provide diagnosis and
treatment to achieve early detection and effective treatment.
The Center performs over 2000 procedures annually.
Upper Endoscopy is used to
treat benign and malignant esophageal and stomach disease, and to
stop gastrointestinal bleeding from ulcers. Endoscopic Retrograde
Cholangio-Pancreatography (ERCP) is performed to diagnose and treat
problems with the biliary system.
Colonoscopy lets the physician look inside your
entire large intestine from the lowest part, the rectum, all the
way up through the colon to the lower end of the small intestine.
The procedure is used to look for early signs of cancer in the colon
and rectum. It is also used to diagnose the causes of unexplained
changes in bowel habits. Colonoscopy enables the physician to see
inflamed tissue, abnormal growths, ulcers and bleeding.
Sigmoidoscopy is the examination of the lining
of the rectum
Bronchoscopy is an examination that allows a
doctor to see inside the airway. During bronchoscopy, an instrument
called a bronchoscope is used to look at the throat, larynx, trachea
and lower bronchial airways of the lungs.
